How do you build a Windows Store LOB app?

When building a line-of-business (LOB) app there are numerous things to consider. Of course you need a great user experience, but what about validating user input, user authentication, how do you deal with application state across suspend-resume, do you roam app state across devices, and there is much more to think about.

But now you can accelerate your development time to build a Windows Store LOB app. A couple of days ago the Pattern & Practices team have released Prism for Windows Runtime and the associated AdventureWorks Shopper reference implementation to the Windows Dev Center.

What is Prism for Windows Runtime?

The Prism for Windows Runtime release provides you guidance to help you more easily design and build flexible and easy-to-maintain Windows Store apps using C# and XAML and the Windows Runtime.
